Loving your job as a truck driver and having experience gives you choices for your career pathway. With experience, you are indispensable. A valued truck driver deserves consistency in pay and the ability to be home with family more often. The best dedicated truck driving jobs provide a better experience for the driver.
Regional Dedicated Routes
When you ask a truck driver what they would love more than anything, the answer is some form of consistency. This includes constant pay, constant job availability, the ability to be home more often, and more consistent routes.
Being able to drive during the day and be home at night is an advantage that experienced drivers strive for. With regional dedicated routes, they can do just that while enjoying consistent routes and pay. These are the positions truck drivers seek.
Choice of Routes
Experienced truck drivers have the opportunity to choose their routes within Southeastern Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York and Delaware metro and rural areas. This choice ultimately leads to the best possible routes for each individual truck driver. Experienced truck drivers have earned this preferential treatment.
More Time at Home
Experienced drivers are shifting their focus as the years have passed and priorities have changed. A dedicated route provides more time at home to enjoy family functions and everyday routines. Even though routes can vary, they increase the time spent at home.
Drivers no longer need to worry about driving hours, rest stops, and sleeping in their trucks. With a dedicated route, they will be able to know exactly where they should be and when. Following the same route becomes a breeze because of the familiarity with the roads and with the individuals at each stop.
Fewer Locations, Fewer Stops
The main benefit of becoming a dedicated route truck driver is less frequent changes. Fewer drop-off locations mean fewer people unloading your truck. Routes that are routine become easier to follow and require fewer stops.
Long hauls require showering in gas stations, the use of rest stops, and checking your rig into a place to park to get some rest. A dedicated route reduces irregular routes, unknown out-of-the-way stops, unpredictable times, and inconsistent pay.
